Would Facebook or Twitter Ever Ban President Trump?
http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/technology/2016/11/would_facebook_or_twitter_ban_president_trump.html
It's a hypothetical question, of course--but not merely an
academic one, given the president-elect's track record of
using social media to sow conspiracy theories, attack
reporters, threaten political rivals, and call for religious
discrimination. Facebook and Twitter in particular have
already struggled to reconcile their policies on harassment
and hate speech with some of the activities of Donald Trump
and his political allies. And the two social networks have
offered starkly different answers to the question.

You don't have to delete Trump posts. Honesty in labeling is even
better. Let his posts go out but put a big red banner on them that
says: "The vile racist is lying again!"
Call him out for what he is.

I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently
doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone.

The correct term is "Internet" NOT "internet" -- please don't
fall into the trap of using the latter. It's just plain wrong!
